I don't f'n believe it!!!

Alas it appear that good fortune has smiled upon my z's demonic possesion the causes it to run whenever it feels. I hooked the fuel pressure gauge up AGAIN for the hundreth time and on one run, 40 psi, come back, fire it up, 30, come back fire it 20. This is the upmost strangest pump failure I've ever encountered. But the shoe fits, so looks like I've got plans for the weekend made out for me, urrrg

Re: I don't f'n believe it!!!

Tell me about it, over the phone, problem found, on line, problem found, in front of my own blind ass overlooking the obvious, useless.

I've just NEVER seen em die like this, they either work or they don't that's what screwed me in over, so in the haste of things I'd put the gauge on, boom 40 psi, rip the gauge off and go hunt for rabbits elsewhere and drive myself batty.

Re: I don't f'n believe it!!!


Good luck!!!

I love my pressure gauge. Right around 61 PSI at idle. As soon as you hit the loud pedal....down to 53 PSI or so. Almost instant. Kinda cool...except that tells me I am maxing out my pump.
So my new high flow pump gets installed next weekend.

Re: I don't f'n believe it!!!


I have only had one neighbor bitch about my car.
And it was 2PM on a Sunday afternoon. Said they can't focus on anything and it echoes through their house. Only when I rev it though.
Boo hoo....I have a performance car that I work on. It will get revved now and again.

Re: I don't f'n believe it!!!

haha well isnt it f'in nice to atleast know you found the problem now?.... this is bringing back memories of my pump change... favorite part had to be when the tank fell out and nailed me in the chest with about 4 gallons left in it... so much for it being "lodged up in there and needing a prybar" lol....

Re: I don't f'n believe it!!!

My favorite part when changing out the fuel pump on mine was when the car fell down a bit, almost crushing me.. swear, if you were watching you would've seen a first, a fat guy getting out from under the car in a second.

My driveway is on a slant so anytime a car is jacked up it gets exciting.
